Fashion Illustrator Megan Hess recently unleashed a collection entitled Enchanted, featuring well heeled African-American women wearing pieces by Chanel, Dior, Alexander McQueen, Chloe, and More.
All ladies are resplendent and angelic in white.
From my decorating experience, it’s difficult to find artwork that reflects African-American fashion. I would frame every single one of these and put them on my wall.
It’s Friday! Let’s bring on today’s Fashion Bomber, Eddie from Philly:
He says, ” If I had to describe my style I would say it’s more of a feeling. I dress I how I feel.”
” We all have days where we feel on top of the world and that’s when I put on my finest and most expensive and than its those gloomy days where I just wanna eat burgers so I’m more inclined to be drenched in oversize haider ackermann or A. Wang.”
” I just love fashion it’s how I introduce myself to the world.”
Hot! Very contemporary cool.

America stuck to the simple styling in the brand’s lookbook.
The stars were in attendance at the 2nd Annual Diamond Ball, hosted by Rihanna and her The Clara Lionel Foundation. The superstar was clad in her favorite French fashion house for the evening, though the rest of the night’s attendees also donned pretty fabulous attire.
Let’s see what they wore!
Rihanna was the belle of the ball in a cream Dior getup. Hot!
Zendaya Coleman served up a flash of abs in a one-shoulder striped crop top and high-waist matching full skirt from Rosie Assoulin. She and stylist Law Roach are a match made in sartorial heaven.
Jada Pinkett Smith was white hot in a one-shoulder, zip-accented Zuhair Murad gown with a thigh-high slit. Isn’t she just flawless?
Mr. Smith was also in attendance, sporting a classic tux. He’s always swoon-worthy.
Kylie Jenner showed off her pearly whites in a cream gown with a waist-cinching belt.
A Todd Patrick Designs skirt was on the menu for Draya Michele. Cute!
Kevin Hart and Eniko Parrish were quite the stylish duo in a tux and black silk gown with a cascading train, respectively. They’re a great-looking couple!
Justine Skye gleamed in a strapless silver, bustier-inspired Rubin Singer gown with a thigh-baring slit.
EJ Johnson paired tailored black separates together for a casual take on a suit.
Holly Robinson Peete shimmered and sparkled in a sequin column gown.
Stylist Chriselle Lim showed just how fun a timeless LBD can be in Sass & Bide. Pretty no?
There are perhaps no words that can rightfully attest to what Oprah is.
For many people of the 80s-early 2000s, she’s Oprah Winfrey of The Oprah Winfrey Show, the highest-rated program of its kind in history, lasting a strong 25 years. She might be Sofia from The Colored Purple, or your leading spokesperson for the democratic elections of (now President) Barack Obama back in 2008 and 2012.
For others, she’s Oprah Winfrey the wealthy philanthropist, ranked the richest African-American of the 20th century and greatest black philanthropist in history. She can be known as the woman who has the “Oprah” effect, where her stamp of approval almost GUARANTEES monetary success for a business, or she can be seen as the “Queen of All Media”, where she now spends her days (among other things) working on the OWN Network. Whatever you know her as, all we can say is Oprah is in every sense of the word a Powerhouse.
Born into poverty and later recalling intense stories of abuse and molestation as a child, Oprah was an extremely devout student in school, solidifying a full scholarship to Tennesse State University, where she would attend and major in Communication.
While at Tennesse State, she would snag a part-time gig with the local black radio station, WVOL, which would be the eventual stepping stones into Ms. Winfrey’s transition into media and hosting for talk shows. Fast-forward to 1986, where high ratings and revenue percentages demanded to see more of the bubbly, commanding Oprah. What you get is The Oprah Winfrey Show, which took on to cover health, spirituality, sex, social issues, celebrity talk and giveaways (Remember when everyone got the car?!) Pretty much, she’s too fabulous for us to even handle it and a huge inspiration for anyone out there with a dream.
Ms. Winfrey may be the “Queen of All Media” but we’ve equally enjoyed watching her style evolution over the years. In the celebration of Oprah’s #BlackGirlMagic she just exudes to each of us, above, check out our style evolution of Ms. Winfrey from her earlier years in the 80s to present day.
